I learned a hard lesson with my 350Z though, so I refuse to sink too much money into this one until its closer to being paid off. And before I do that, I have to find/build/get an AR before isht hits the fan. Luckily I think the wife is going to buy me one with our income tax return for my 40th birthday here in a few weeks. We might put the rest into the principle left on the Z, so that will be a huge dent in paying it off. So parts shall ensue shortly after. :-)

I gotta get some stuff in there so I can show up at the meets without looking so stock.
Speaking of ar's, check what i put togetther last week...



stock and buffer tube should be here tomorrow.

but yea i would get one asap if u ever want one. side note, what if u just put some hfc's or tp's on your nismo to give it some more volume on the cheap?

thats just the beginning, it honestly needs at least $7-10k in repairs and such just to get it back to "proper shape" at 147k everything is failing now.

not sure its gunna be safe enough for zdayz this year. for the dragon or the trip there.

And Im having hard time justifying picking up a car payment. Dont get me wrong I love the 370, but for me, is it 3x the car?? I dont think there's many cars under $30 are worthy of paying heavily every month for or are that much better than my z

then im back in a stock car too

really struggling with this now..... im mean you all talked yourself into them, do you ever regret it...... especially those of you who have had z33's (or g's scott)

well.... i would like to say i have been 100% sold on my z, but car payments do get old. with that being said, i do love this car. its nice turning heads like i'm driving a $200k car when i take it out.

there are other options for your car purchase. maybe a newer 350? base 370's are going for like $21k now too
